Enjoy your summer vacation in Zell am See with children

Your family vacation in Zell am See

A summer vacation at the Waldhof, your family hotel in Zell am See, makes children’s hearts beat faster. Vacations in the mountains can be so much more than hiking or skiing! And as children and teenagers are not always enthusiastic about the leisure activities of the grown-ups, Zell am See-Kaprun has special highlights for its young guests that will certainly not leave them bored.


Summer fun for “cool kids”

Here at the family hotel Der Waldhof in Zell am See, young and old are always well looked after – with a wide range of activities, fun and relaxation. So that parents can also take a little time for themselves, Zell am See – Kaprun offers an exciting and playful Vacation program daily from Monday to Friday in July & August in the months June & September on 2 weekdays. Children and teenagers between the ages of five and 15 are well looked after and kept happy here: There are two different programs to choose from for adventurous kids.

  • “Cool Kids Fun” is where things really get going with a variety of activities. There is a glacier family day on the Kitzsteinhorn, llama trekking in the footsteps of gold prospectors, a pirate treasure hunt on Lake Zell and a visit to Schmidolin the dragon, the Schmittenhöhe mascot.
  • “Cool Kids Adventure” The program promises action and adventure for children aged seven and over, where physical challenge meets excitement – whether it’s archery, mountain bike riding technique training, climbing under professional guidance on the climbing tower or in the hall, or a fast-paced combination of hiking and downhill riding on the Mountain Skyver, a folding mountain scooter.

Our hotel is a Cool Kids partner hotel, so the vacation programs are completely free of charge for you.


Action and adventure on the mountain

Of course, Zell am See-Kaprun also offers plenty of leisure activities beyond the organized programmes – from swimming, surfing, stand-up paddling or boating on Lake Zell to summer tobogganing on the Maiskogel and a wide variety of hikes and excursions.

Kids aged six to 14 can test their racing skills in Austria’s highest e-motocross park on “Schmidolins Feuerstuhl”. Another highlight starts right next to the racecourse on the Schmittenhöhe – the adventure hiking trail “Schmidolin’s Baptism of Fire” with tricky stations for climbing, balancing and guessing. The Schmiedhofalm adventure playground also keeps little guests on the move, while the “Mystical Forest” hike on the Sonnkogel promises fabulous experiences for the whole family.
